Hawaii: CMS Rating Breakdown
Hawaii has 42 CMS-certified nursing homes, with an average Five-Star overall rating of 3.66 out of 5, according to current official CMS figures. The facilities break down by ownership into 25 for-profit providers, 10 nonprofit organizations, and 7 government-operated homes.
The Five-Star rating system has documented limitations and should be understood as a relative measure rather than an absolute quality verdict for any individual facility. A statewide average represents a broad indicator of the landscape, not a judgment on specific providers. When evaluating a particular nursing home, prospective residents and their families should consult the facility's dedicated Care Compare profile and per-facility pages on the CMS website for detailed, facility-specific information. Such research should complement rather than replace consultation with medical, financial, or legal professionals when making care decisions.
How to read this. The star ratings here are official CMS Five-Star Quality figures, shown as the rating as of May2026 — a relative quality measure with documented limits, not a recommendation, guarantee, or medical/financial/legal advice. Always confirm the current rating and details on the facility’s live Medicare Care Compare profile, and involve the resident and their clinicians in any decision.
